Straylight Run

Well, I am just guessing
I'm doing my best to make some sense out of senselessness
I'm talking to my wife, I'm drinking too much wine
I'm working on words, music, and melodies

This is the best, this is the worst
I am the last, I am the first
I'm placing blame and taking credit in a world I can't control

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

I feel I have to find some meaning
I don't think I see any
I don't know what it is I see at all
Oh, no one's got it right, yeah
They're just telling lies
Combined with their own special kind of truth

This is the best, This is the worst
I am the last, I am the first
I'm placing blame and taking credit in a world I can't control

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

Truth is just opinion
Facts entwined with fiction
Well, I just keep wondering
What is there to believe in?

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
(Truth is just opinion)
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
(Fact entwined with opinion)
To fill this space and feel like I belong
(Well, I just keep wondering, what is there to believe in?)

I try to find a way just to say what I'm chasing
Define what I'm making, believe what I'm saying
To fill this space and feel like I belong

    General CommentJohn: Lyrically it's much more self conscious and straight forward and it's about struggling with something rather than giving up on it. It was the first song we worked on after the last album and I think for us the lyrics and the music were about getting back to something basic that we could use as a starting point for where we would go next.
